Police in Nakuru have arrested a 16-year-old suspect linked to the alleged defilement and murder of Grade Six pupil Mercy Nyambura in Lare village, Njoro Sub-County.
Njoro Sub-County Police Commander Stanley Koech said the suspect had fled the area after allegedly committing the offence and had already been identified by residents as a person of interest.
“After getting a tip on who the suspect could be, our investigative team immediately began a manhunt for him. He escaped from his parents’ home within the village,” said Koech.
Police tracked down the suspect on Thursday morning at his aunt’s home in neighbouring Mau Narok Ward.
